Who Should I Start? KaVontae Turpin or Keandre Lambert-Smith

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver KaVontae Turpin (foot) returned to practice on Wednesday after missing the past two games with a foot sprain. Turpin has quietly been efficient this season, hauling in 11 of 13 targets for 159 yards and a touchdown. While he's not a focal point of the Dallas passing attack, his speed and versatility keep him involved enough to offer deep-league or bye-week appeal. With the Cowboys offense passing at a high volume, Turpin could provide sneaky flex value if he's cleared to play in Week 7. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his practice participation throughout the week before considering him as a potential plug-in option.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Keandre Lambert-Smith is a healthy scratch for his team's Week 3 matchup with the Denver Broncos, per The Athletic's Daniel Popper. Lambert-Smith has not recorded an NFL catch and saw just one target across the Chargers' first two games of 2025. He's currently buried on the Chargers depth chart at wide receiver behind Ladd McConkey, Keenan Allen, Quentin Johnston, Derius Davis, and fellow rookie Tre' Harris. Lambert-Smith should remain off the radar of fantasy managers in redraft leagues.
